Pregnancy really has a way of messing with your body. While it’s all worth meeting your baby, nine months of your body stretching and transforming tend to lead to some uncomfortable symptoms. Thankfully, we’ve gotten to know the body pretty darn well and understand how to best assist it throughout this season. If you’re looking for the perfect way to help your body handle the effects of pregnancy, I would love to tell you all about Shenandoah Chiropractic. This Harrisonburg practice ensures you can take on the challenges of growing a brand-new human.
Dr. Patrick Keefe founded Shenandoah Chiropractic. He graduated from the Sherman College of Chiropractic in 2004 before moving to Northern Virginia to practice at Prince William Chiropractic Clinic. Dr. Keefe felt the desire to start his own practice in a smaller town and moved to the Shenandoah Valley in 2006 to work with his brother-in-law. Now, over 15 years later, Dr. Keefe continues helping families all across Harrisonburg.
Dr. Keefe prefers to work by hand rather than using charts and technologies (though the office has these if needed). He’ll feel your spine and target problem areas. His adjustments are gentle yet effective. You’ll leave the office feeling simply amazing! You can check him out at 1951 Evelyn Byrd Ave STE B.
While Dr. Keefe provides a long list of services, his prenatal adjustments are top-notch! Because pregnancy can be pretty rough on your back and neck, he targets these areas during your appointment. He’ll carefully realign the spinal cord and surrounding muscles and ligaments during this time. The practice is very safe for you and your baby, and Dr. Keefe ensures you’re treated with the care you need.
By working with your nervous system to help your body achieve optimal function, you’ll also likely see relief from common pregnancy symptoms, including nausea and joint dysfunction. The adjustments help prepare your body for labor by positioning your baby. He’ll work with you to make some overall wellness goals and help you achieve them throughout your pregnancy.
The birthing process can be pretty hard on babies, and many chiropractors think that the majority of infants have misalignments following labor. This can lead to sleeping issues, physical problems, acid reflux, and more. You can talk to Shenandoah Chiropractic about scheduling a visit for your infant. Through pediatric adjustments, they’ll be feeling their best in no time!
If the pain of pregnancy is wearing you down, it’s time to call Dr. Keefe at Shenandoah Chiropractic. Through his skilled adjustments, your body will feel ready for anything pregnancy can throw at it!
